4 Ways to Improve Auditory Awareness as a Neuro linguistic programming coach | NLP IS Fun

A huge part of truly mastering Neuro linguistic programming is your ability to calibrate information. We as neuro linguistic programming coaches and change workers have a different take on listening, this is because we are so interested in the words, tonality, cadence, inflection and so much more.  We consider all of this additional information that adds meaning to the words you choose.

The last two years during the pandemic is a perfect example of how becoming more adaptive with sensory based information became so much more relevant, since we were no longer connecting in the ways we had been so used to.
We were unable to meet in person or have a large group. In this case how we presented information changed. Neuro linguistic programming training that traditionally had been done face to face in many cases was 100% online or via telecommunication, email, video.

NLP coaches were mostly coaching with their telephones now and online.

We also found there may be times it was not possible to have any visuals and only have auditory sensory calibration capabilities.

Communication is what we as Neuro linguistic programmers do, we love to learn your "model of the world".
This information is relevant and priceless to us and considered information gathering. 

Because to us listening is more than just hearing. Being fully focused and present to the information being presented in its original form. Without adding anything to it, instead listening exactly how it is being presented and examining each subtle nuance.

Notice what you can notice that lends more information or creates some type of micro shift and explore it to find out what is going on.


If you have been one of my long-time readers of NLP is Fun you may be familiar with this post, I wrote about your Auditory representation system which is also a worthwhile read.

Here are 4 ways to Improve auditory awareness as an NLP Coach

4 ways to Improve Auditory awareness | NLP is Fun

1. Listen to tonality = the speakers tone always gives much more information as to the strength of the statement belief, or mind state at time of communicating. Ask yourself "what is the meaning of this" and explore more.

2. Listen to Rythm and Pace changes read my blog post about Rhyme, Rhythm and Hypnosis here   for more about communication Language and Rythm.

3. Listen to the speakers breathing and notice heart rate, if possible as well as body language does this appear to match the pace of the words being communicated. 

4. Listen to repetitions, metaphors, reasons and beliefs each one adding volumes of clues.

Think of yourself as a communication investigator and have fun investigating. Remember do not add assumptions of your own and be objective in your findings. 

It is your turn, how do you feel about doing this, perhaps you have another tip have you ever had great success by doing these and more please let me know in the comments.

10 ways to become solution focused with Neuro linguistic programming | NLP is Fun

It is possible to live at cause using Neuro linguistic programming.

As NLP'ers we speak a lot about feeling Powerful, being powerful and living at Cause to create the life that we deserve.
We speak of living at Cause and not effect.

Living at cause = feeling and being in control of your life, "I cause this to happen" I am in charge of my life, I have the capability to choose, make a difference etc.

Living at Effect = feeling Powerless, "This happens to me" People are in control of me and my circumstances.

When being in control even if dark skies seemingly loom ahead because you are "at Cause" you are looking for the light. this becomes a filter, in your thinking and expectations and naturally in your behavior and unconscious choices.

Nadia Harper Neuro linguistic programming Trainer and Coach.

How would your life change if you unconsciously filter a commitment to seeking the light? 

Here are 10 ways to become solution focused with Neuro linguistic programming.

1. Keep your radar tuned in to discovering the light because it has to be there somewhere.

2. Speak your own power into being "I can, I will, I am" capable.

3. See yourself as worthwhile, able, capable build up to powerful.

4. Become solution oriented, only focus on the solution and it will become a filter in all your do and how you think and also resolve.

5. Let go of the problem, disengage your kinesthetic responses and learn the structure of how the problem was created.

6. See the construct as pliable either way. Towards a solution or against a solution.

7. Decide the direction you will focus on and assert your power only to back up your commitment to resolution.

8. Do not allow anything to dissuade you from reaching your outcome.

9. Create mental drills that support your outcome.

10. Feel the shift ahead of time and act as if this is true.
